My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 186

Michael resisted from laughing as he stoically hung up on the phone.

Nathan wore a pair of frog pajamas while playing games in his room. After logging into his ‘NateHiro’ character, he went around to defeat monsters.

Michael had also changed into his frog pajamas as he leaned on the door frame, looking at him. “Darling, are you playing games?”

Nathan ignored him.

Nathan thought about it for a while before answering him, “I’m playing the ‘Swordsman Game’.”

Michael smiled. “Oh gosh, I’ve already installed it on my laptop, but I can’t figure out how to play it. Can you teach me how to log into the game?”

Nathan glanced at him before placing his fingers on his laptop keyboard and began to register the latter’s details in the game.

After Sophia was done with her bath, she saw that the father and son were already playing games. Nathan was impressively helping Michael’s character in the game.

It was obvious to her that Michael was still a novice at the game—he was so new that his character had to die a few times while he fought the little monsters in Novice Village. Even though Nathan looked impatient with him, the latter was still his father, so he suppressed his frustrations and helped him through a few rounds.

“Darling, hubby, are you playing games too? Wait for me. I also want to join!”

She quickly logged into her new character before locating Michael and Nathan’s location in the game; the family of three were now a team to fight monsters.

She still dare not log into her main character because Sirius233 was still Scary Phoenix’s b*tch.

Michael didn’t seem to have played a game before, which explained his clumsiness. He took ages to kill a monster and his skill level was close to zero. She continued to help him to fight monsters while sighing in her heart, It looks like my idol is not completely perfect. There will always be something that he isn’t good at, like playing games.

The family of three were in the midst of playing games together when Hale entered to look for Michael. The moment Hale opened the door, he saw three frogs huddled together and playing games.

When he saw Sophia being proud of herself for helping a novice like Michael defeat monsters, he felt that it was impossible for her to ever escape Michael’s grasp.

The phrase ‘being played into someone’s hands’ can probably be used to describe Sophia and Michael… Other families spend their time together playing house whereas this family bonds by playing games.

Michael played for a while before following Hale to talk about business.

“Boss, according to reliable sources, Phantom Wolf has already entered Cethos, and he is now planning to cause trouble.” Hale’s expression was serious even though he was facing a massive frog.

Michael silently removed the hood and read his report with a dark face.

Phantom Wolf was the codename for the leader of an international terrorist organization. The ZF Organization had no name with members around the world, causing lots of terrorist attacks. Many world leaders were frustrated because of them, so lots of countries formed an alliance to catch those international criminals, but there hadn’t been a successful way to capture their leader.

The organization had existed for almost a century with a horrifying background and Phantom Wolf was their leader’s codename. Every decade or so, Phantom Wolf would appear in Cethos. Although he was driven out of the country each time he showed up, he seemed to have a special connection with the land.

The last time he came was two years ago when Michael laid a trap to capture him. Even though he was severely injured, he still managed to escape in the end.

He had discovered Phantom Wolf’s whereabouts not too long ago and deployed a lot of men to capture the man, but he still managed to escape the carefully planned trap. No one even knew what Phantom Wolf looked like.

Michael’s men only managed to catch a photo of Phantom Wolf’s back—the man was treacherous and cunning, so it was the only picture they had after a long period of investigation.

He looked at Phantom Wolf in the picture. Phantom Wolf was a man who wore a baseball, but only his back was seen. Even though his face was obscured, every inch of his body was oozing a dangerous aura.

“Phantom Wolf…” Michael called his name out as a sense of hatred filled him. My sister and my brother-in-law died in his hands!

When he was done with his business, he returned to the room and saw that Sophia and Nathan were asleep after they finished playing their game. The sight of two frogs—one big and one small—leaning against each other was exceptionally sweet.

Michael tilted his head to admire their sleeping position and gently closed the door a while later.

The moment he closed the door, Sophia immediately opened her eyes and thought about a particular serious question while staring at her fingers. Why don’t I choose a perfect day to sleep with Michael? It feels so exciting and embarrassing that I’m about to sleep with my idol.

All she could think about was the dirty pictures that he sent her, making her so excited that she couldn’t sleep.

However, whenever she thought about his gay friends, she felt defeated again.

I must not like Michael because he is simply oxic! Not only is he the dream of 2 billion girls in the world, but I have rivals in the form of 2 billion young men! Why do I have to face many rivals just to like this man? Not only are girls my rivals, but boys as well!

The next day, she woke up earlier and went to school with Nathan.

After a snowfall, it had turned Bayside University into an exceptionally beautiful campus, as if it was coated with silver and snow. The janitor had already cleared out the snow to make a path.

Sophia sent Nathan to the School of Computer Science and met Stanley on the way there. As the weather was cold as of late, he did not dare to ride his motorbike; therefore, he drove here in a second-hand car that he bought from a car dealership. He then parked his car in the campus’s parking lot among the other luxurious cars.

“Sophia! You finally decided to come to class!” He instantly touched her fluffy knitted hat.

Before she could even respond, Nathan answered, “Get your hands off her!”

Stanley also rubbed his tiny head before dragging him to his classroom. “Sophia, you can head off now. I’ll help to take care Nathan for you.”

Upon seeing them leaving, she walked toward her classroom.

On the way there, she felt that everyone looked at her with a strange expression.

What is it again?

Sophia was confused. She never thought that Kayla would dare to get her involved in what happened at the Harper Family’s banquet the last time. If Kayla didn’t, Sophia intended to slowly kill her, but if she did, the latter could immediately end her. I merely asked for a normal leave from the university. Do they have to look at me like that?

Then, a familiar face was walking in front of her.

“Meow!”

Sarah was a new friend whom Sophia met during military training. After she returned from school, they would both occasionally catch a meal together. Both their names started with an ‘S’, so they felt closer to each other. She was one of Sophia’s few friends and even gave a nickname to the latter.

“Sofie!” Sarah called out upon seeing Sophia and greeted her happily. “Are you feeling better? You look even prettier after being gone for a month.”

Sarah was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but her family had built their wealth from scratch, so she did not have the arrogance of an elite, which made it easier for her to talk to anyone.

After exchanging greetings, they grabbed each other’s shoulders and walked toward their class. “Wow, I didn’t attend that banquet because I didn’t receive any invitation. You’re so brilliant, considering you actually talked to all three idols at the same time. You even wore your idol’s dress and ring. You’re so awesome!”

Sophia asked curiously, “Why do I feel that everybody is looking at me with a strange expression?”

Sarah sighed. “Lately, I don’t know which brain-dead magazine company has decided to spew nonsense again. Here, look at this.”

She had bought a magazine from a newsstand on her way to campus. On the magazine cover was a picture of Stanley devouring a plate of pudding with ferocity. It seemed to be taken at the Harper Family’s banquet.

The title of the magazine read, ‘The Dream to Marry Into A Rich Family Gone. Ex-Girlfriend of the Young Master of Harper Group Obsessed With a Loser Gamer!’

Sophia was rendered speechless.
